Rarity is about to be BRILLIANT!

Description

"...And I have this wolf to thank for it!"

An illustration based on a scene in an upcoming 'Ardiverse' story, where the wolf from 'Wolf in Pony's Clothing' returns to Ponyville to get some official diplomatic attire to better represent the Northern Forest Packs at the big celebration and reception planned for the official re-opening of relations between the Crystal Empire and Equestria. Who better than Rarity to present her work on the new diplomat, favored of the Princesses, before the entire court?

Everypony who's anypony will be there. The Princesses, Princess Cadence and Prince Consort Shining Armor, ponies from the Knyagina of Stalliongrad who just lost the monopoly on trade they had in the northlands, the Element Bearers, a multitude of court nobles and diplomats...

Oh yes, and Ardi the Wolf, late of the Great Northern Forest, late of Ponyville, and wondering how he's going to defend his pack's interests amidst all the court scheming. And how he'll deal with Rarity, who (after the event of WiPC and the enchanted maresuit), has an axe to grind, quite possibly on his bones. Oh yes, she's also his escort for the evening -- he needs somepony to help him navigate the court, after all. And he can trust Rarity not to be vengeful.

Right?

Or the revelation that he and his packs are remembered by the Crystal Ponies from a thousand years gone...

When they served the Great Alpha, King Sombra, the Pony with a Wolf's Heart, and ATE ponies for him?

And did I mention the new-found Changeling Queen Vespid from Canterlot, who is also invited, and who remembers Shiny and Cadence -- and what they did to her hive when they threw Chrysalis out of Canterlot?

It should be quite the memorable evening...

Done for me at FC2015 by that great artist, :iconbaron-engel: Go and look at his age for artworks that set even this to shame!
